Main issues, as the Inspector framed them
- Whether acceptable servicing and car parking provision is available and, if not, the effect of the development on highway safety, the free flow of traffic and on-street car parking demand
- The effect of the development on the character and appearance of the area
- The effect of the development on the occupiers of neighbouring properties in respect of outlook and light
What decided it
The loss of servicing and car parking space resulting from the unauthorised extension created unacceptable impacts on highway safety and traffic flow, combined with significant harm to the character and appearance of the area, which could not be justified by any material planning considerations.
The harms to highway safety, traffic flow, on-street parking demand and character and appearance were not outweighed by any material planning considerations, and the development did not accord with the development plan.

- Development plan policies
- DMP1DMP12DMP13T7BT3D4
